manchester city win the league cup for the fourth year in a row. and it all happened in front of 8,000 spectators at wembley as sport gradually welcomes supporters back. it's a good night for the brits at the oscars, as sir anthony hopkins and daniel kaluuya take home prizes. celebrate life, man. we're breathing, we're walking. it's incredible. it's incredible! like, it's incredible. my mum, my dad, they had sex. it's amazing. like, do you know what i'm saying? i'm here! but nomadland scoops best picture, best director and best actress for frances mcdormand. good morning. the weather this week is turning more unsettled with eventually all of us seeing some rain. today the rain is on the northern half of the country, drier and brighter in the southern half. all the details in about ten minutes. it's monday 26th april. our top story. india has recorded another global record of new coronavirus cases for the fifth day running, with more than 352,000 infections reported in the last 2a hours.

hospitals in delhi have completely run out of beds and some are missing critical supplies including oxygen. the uk — along with others — is now sending medical aid to the country. 0ur india correspondent yogita limaye reports. the capital is being ravaged at a frightening speed. with every pyre that burns, india's self belief is dying. each funeral is a story of personal loss and national shame. charanjeev malhotra has been helping to cremate the dead for decades. now, he barely ever stops working. "i've never seen such a terrifying situation. i can't believe that we're

in the capital of india. people aren't getting oxygen, and they're dying like animals," he says. "we don't even have enough resources to cremate them properly." 0utside, shivangi mehra's on the phone, organising oxygen for the hospital she works in. nothing, nothing is being done. i don't know if government is sleeping, or what they are doing. i am totally disheartened with the situation that i am seeing. the government is a literal failure. a person cannot live here in delhi. a person cannot even die peacefully in delhi. she is waiting to cremate her grandfather, who died, she says, because there wasn't enough oxygen. this small hospital in north delhi is facing a daily struggle. and we have been spending sleepless nights since the last one week. at times we feel like crying, because we are not able to help patients properly. every day, it is the same scenario. we are left only with two hours of oxygen. and we are only getting assurance from the system, no oxygen.

and so, families are being told to organise oxygen. at one medical shop, we found people with empty cylinders, waiting to buy their own supply for loved ones who urgently need it. for many here, the government's promises of rushing in oxygen are coming too late. families are left asking why something so basic is unavailable. every crematorium we've been to, we've seen body after body being brought in. it's hard for anyone to keep count, but what workers have been telling me is that the real scale of deaths caused by covid—i9 in india is a lot higher than what official numbers reflect. and a lot of those who've died right now have done so because they couldn't get oxygen in time. this man runs a group of volunteers here.

"even young people are dying. it is a very bad situation." if it keeps getting worse, we will have to burn bodies by the side of the road", he says. there is a sense of abandonment in this country. citizens are stepping up to do what a government should. left to fight a vicious pandemic on their own. yogita limaye, bbc news, delhi. the uk's most senior civil servant will be questioned by mps later on lobbying rules. simon case is also expected to be asked about allegations of impropriety made against the prime minister, by his former advisor, dominic cummings. meanwhile, labour has written to the electoral commission to demand a formal inquiry into the funding of refurbishments to boris johnson's downing street flat. 0ur political correspondent, iain watson, has this report. when dominic cummings left downing street last year, some in government worried about what secrets might emerge from that box.

he's now claimed that borisjohnson planned to ask a conservative donors to pay for the refurbishment of the downing street flat, and that this was unethical. labour plans to keep up the pressure on number 10. they lawyers have written to the party political watchdog, the electoral commission. they say... "following dominic cummings�* claims, it's now incontrovertibly in the public interest that the electoral commission commends a formal investigation." the commission says it is still gathering information. downing street says electoral laws haven't been broken and no codes of conduct have been breached. labour is seeking to broaden their attack by demanding the publication of all contacts and links between ministers and firms giving government contracts during the covid crisis. the government said while contracts had been awarded at speed, due diligence was carried out, and ministers had no role in awarding them. and today, a committee of mps will question the country's top civil servant about another of dominic cummings�* allegations. simon case was due to talk about lobbying rules. he will now also be asked

about the claim the prime minister considered halting a leak inquiry, in case it put a friend of his fiancee, carrie symonds, in the frame. downing street has said that this is absolutely false. now that he's out of downing street, dominic cummings seems keen for others tojoin him. iain watson, bbc news. around half—a—million ali—year—olds in england will be invited to book their first dose of a coronavirus vaccine from today. ao—to—as—year—olds are expected to follow later this week. it comes as a new tv ad campaign is being launched to encourage all under—sos across the uk to say yes when they're offered a shot. remember that younger people are still at risk of getting covid, they're still at risk of severe disease and, of course, we know there are other side effects such as long covid that can be a consequence of this virus. so it's really crucial that everybody is vaccinated. when you get your text,

the flames cover an area equivalent to five football pitches. two specialist wildlife units have also been sent to the scene. it comes almost two years to the day since a devastating fire destroyed over 700 hectares of land there. it was a good night for brits at the oscars last night. sir anthony hopkins took home the award for best actor, while daniel kaluuya won best supporting actor, and emerald fennell scooped best screenplay for promising young woman. nomadland took home several awards, with chloe zhao becoming the first woman of colour to win best director. the pandemic meant it was a pared—down ceremony, as our entertainment correspondent colin paterson reports. the year the oscars were held in a train station, best picture went to a film about a van. nomadland! frances mcdormand plays a woman who has lost herjob and her husband, so takes to the road to find work and community.

no, i'm not homeless. i'm just... ..houseless. she celebrated by encouraging people to go back to the cinema, and then paid tribute to the film's sound mixer, michael wolf snyder, who took his own life last month. we give this one to our wolf. she howls. she also won best actress for a third time. the film's director, chloe zhao, became only the second woman in the 93—year history of the oscars to win best director. at the age of 83, sir anthony hopkins became a triple oscar winner, and the oldest best actor ever, for playing a man with dementia in the father. i am not leaving my flat! butjust like at the baftas, he wasn't there. the academy congratulates anthony hopkins and accepts the oscar on his behalf. he hadn't even gone to the bfi in london, where a number of british nominees had gathered. it was the final award of the night and meant the oscars had

a very flat ending. earlier, britain's daniel kaluuya was named best supporting actor for playing the black panther fred hampson injudas and the black messiah. the black panthers are forming a rainbow coalition of oppressed brothers and sisters of every colour. and managed to thoroughly embarrass his sister. like, its incredible. my mum, my dad, they had sex. it's amazing. like, do you know what i'm saying? i'm here! do you know what i mean? so, i'm so happy to be alive. there was a very different feel to this year's oscars. it was far less star—studded, there were few laughs and few film clips. the opening was designed to look like a movie, although had it not been live, regina king would have asked for take two. 0h! live tv, here we go. and on the night glenn close tied with peter o'toole for having the most acting nominations without ever winning — eight — she showed she wasn't too downhearted when taking part in a film quiz and doing a dance. there were british wins

"outrage as number 10 rules out an urgent inquiry into pandemic mistakes," is the guardian's headline. it quotes a letter from the government sent to lawyers representing thousands of families that said "an inquiry now is not appropriate". "we're all going on an autumn holiday" —

that's according to the times. the paper says hopeful holiday—makers are causing a surge in bookings for breaks later in the year. "stop the hate now" is the daily mirror's headline. it says sports stars, including ex—football player thierry henry, have backed calls for social media firms to crack down on online abuse. we are speaking to him a little bit later on the programme. he we are speaking to him a little bit later on the programme.- we are speaking to him a little bit later on the programme. he will be here at about _ later on the programme. he will be here at about 8:20am, _ later on the programme. he will be here at about 8:20am, asking - later on the programme. he will be . here at about 8:20am, asking whether that will make a difference, whether you are supporting it and also asking whether thierry henry is asking whether thierry henry is asking football fans to take part in that, as well, and whether it could actually be quite a powerful few days where there isn't that much activity on social media from some of the biggest clubs out there. 6:18am. from today you can travel to scotland from england and wales and stay overnight. so what difference will it make to businesses? nina's in gretna for us this morning. good morning to you. good morning!

by the stephen hawking foundation with help from scientists and pupils and teachers in east london. my father used to say there was no such thing as a stupid question, and we framed — the whole presentation is about asking questions. and we want students to feel that they can bring forward what their concerns are, what they may have heard, that they can discuss it with someone they trust — their teacher — who will also, at the same time in this presentation, have access to all the information they need, to help students come to their own conclusions based on factual, up—to—date scientific information. it's big congratulations to daniel kaluuya. the londoner who grew up in camden town has won best supporting actor at the oscars for his performance as black panthers leader fred hampton injudas and the black messiah. let's take a look at the travel situation now.

now the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. the temperature overnight widely stayed above zero, so we should be frost free this morning. we have got a little bit of cloud, but that will burn back and we will see another dry day with some sunshine. that east, north easterly breeze persists, however, so it's going to feel a bit chillier in the east. further west, temperatures of 13 or iii celsius. overnight tonight, after some evening sunshine, it's dry and it's clear. as a result, the temperature is going to drop right down to zero, perhaps out in the suburbs, so we mightjust see the return of a little bit of frost first thing on tuesday morning. on tuesday, there is a front moving south. but it's a little bit further west, so it looks like we are going to see any rain.

like we are going to escape any rain. it is going to be another dry day with some sunshine. it's not until overnight on wednesday where we start to see the effects of that front towards the south, and we are likely to see a little bit of rain overnight and into thursday morning. it will clear. chillier for thursday. the temperature recovering just a little into the weekend. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london in half an hour. now, though, it's back to dan and louise. bye for now. good morning, welcome to breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin. our headlines today. a country struggling to breathe — india registers a record—breaking number of new coronavirus cases for a fifth day in a row. questions grow for the prime minister about the refurbishment of his downing street flat as labour demands a formal inquiry. manchester city win the league cup for the fourth year in a row and it all happened in front of 8,000 spectators at wembley as sport gradually welcomes supporters back.

it's a good night for the brits at the oscars as sir anthony hopkins and daniel kaluuya take home prizes. got to celebrate life, man. we're breathing, we're walking. it's incredible. it's incredible! like, it's incredible. my mum, my dad, they had sex. it's amazing. like, do you know what i'm saying? i'm here! but nomadland scoops best picture, best director and best actress for frances mcdormand. good morning. april has been pretty dry but through this week most of us will see some rain or showers and we see a return to the cold arctic wind. today the rain is on the north, drierand wind. today the rain is on the north, drier and brighter wind. today the rain is on the north, drierand brighter in wind. today the rain is on the north, drier and brighter in the south. all the details in about 12 minutes. it's monday 26th april. our top story. india has recorded another global record of new coronavirus cases for the fifth day running, with more than 352,000 infections reported in the last 2a hours.

hospitals in delhi have completely run out of beds and some are missing critical supplies including oxygen. the uk — along with others — is now sending medical aid to the country. our india correspondent yogita limaye reports. the capital is being ravaged at a frightening speed. with every pyre that burns, india's self belief is dying. each funeral is a story of personal loss and national shame. charanjeev malhotra has been helping to cremate the dead for decades. now, he barely ever stops working. "i've never seen such a terrifying situation. i can't believe that we're in the capital of india. people aren't getting oxygen, and they're dying like animals," he says. "we don't even have enough resources

to cremate them properly." outside, shivangi mehra's on the phone, organising oxygen for the hospital she works in. nothing, nothing is being done. i don't know if government is sleeping, or what they are doing. i am totally disheartened with the situation that i am seeing. the government is a literal failure. a person cannot live here in delhi. a person cannot even die peacefully in delhi. she is waiting to cremate her grandfather, who died, she says, because there wasn't enough oxygen. this small hospital in north delhi is facing a daily struggle. and we have been spending sleepless nights since the last one week. at times we feel like crying, because we are not able to help patients properly. every day, it is the same scenario. we are left only with two hours of oxygen. and we are only getting assurance from the system, no oxygen. and so, families are being told

to organise oxygen. at one medical shop, we found people with empty cylinders, waiting to buy their own supply for loved ones who urgently need it. for many here, the government's promises of rushing in oxygen are coming too late. families are left asking why something so basic is unavailable. every crematorium we've been to, we've seen body after body being brought in. it's hard for anyone to keep count, but what workers have been telling me is that the real scale of deaths caused by covid—19 in india is a lot higher than what official numbers reflect. and a lot of those who've died right now have done so because they couldn't get oxygen in time. this man runs a group of volunteers here. "even young people are dying. it is a very bad situation.

if it keeps getting worse, we will have to burn bodies by the side of the road," he says. there is a sense of abandonment in this country. citizens are stepping up to do what a government should. left to fight a vicious pandemic on their own. yogita limaye, bbc news, delhi. our correspondent nikhil inamdar joins us now from miraj. these numbers are truly devastating for india. what more can you tell us? �* , ,., , for india. what more can you tell us? �* , , ., , . , for india. what more can you tell us? _ , for india. what more can you tell us? �* _ , ., us? absolutely. just look at the last 24-hour. — us? absolutely. just look at the last 24-hour, 352,000 - us? absolutely. just look at the last 24-hour, 352,000 fresh i us? absolutely. just look at the | last 24-hour, 352,000 fresh new last 24—hour, 352,000 fresh new infections. over 2800 people losing their lives and according to one report i saw, new infections been reported at 2li3 every minute. the tally over 17 million and this is the fifth straight day of records we

have seen. in terms of oxygen, as the report said, it is not very good. the demand far, far, far continues to outstrip supply despite measures being announced by the government including running special trains and getting the air force to chip in. sos calls continue on social media with hospitals asking for more supplies of oxygen, saying that bailey have —— they barely have a couple of hours. the prime minister has announced he would be setting up new oxygen plants in every district in the country, but that won't help the immediate situation, the immediate crisis of oxygen being faced. the good news amongst all of this is that the international community has now really stepped in to try to help india. . ~' ,. , really stepped in to try to help india. . ~ ,. , . really stepped in to try to help india. . ,, i. , . ., india. thank you very much for brinuain india. thank you very much for bringing us _ india. thank you very much for bringing us up _ india. thank you very much for bringing us up to _ india. thank you very much for bringing us up to date. - pressure is growing on the prime minister to explain how he paid for the refurbishment of his downing street flat. labour has written to

the electoral commission to demand a formal inquiry. meanwhile, the uk's most senior civil servant will be questioned by mps today about lobbying rules and allegations of impropriety levelled against borisjohnson, by his former advisor, dominic cummings. let's speak to our chief political correspondent, adam fleming. good morning. a lot for number 10 to respond to at the moment. in good morning. a lot for number 10 to respond to at the moment.— respond to at the moment. in terms of this story — respond to at the moment. in terms of this story about _ respond to at the moment. in terms of this story about the _ respond to at the moment. in terms of this story about the renovations l of this story about the renovations to the prime minister's personal flat, which is above number 11 on downing street, the government said on friday he paid for it that renovations himself, but ministers are not saying if that money came from a conservative donor, and if it did, either in the form of a loan or a donation, then the prime minister would have to declare that so it was transparent, and he has not declared anything along those lines yet. there is also the issue, the government has now confirmed they were looking at the idea of setting up were looking at the idea of setting up a charity or a charitable trust

to oversee renovations in general over downing street so there are questions from boris johnson's opponents questions from borisjohnson's opponents over questions from boris johnson's opponents over whether that was an attempt to avoid all this transparency they would have to submit themselves to. that is one of theissues submit themselves to. that is one of the issues that simon case, the cabinet secretary, will be asked about in parliament this afternoon. he is not a household name. he is in my household because he is one of the most important civil service figures in the government. lots of the roads of the stories we have talked about in the last few weeks lead to him or threw him, whether the government's handling of coronavirus, whether the lobbying of business interests of the government, whether the prime minister's whatsapps or civil servants doing two jobs minister's whatsapps or civil servants doing twojobs in minister's whatsapps or civil servants doing two jobs in the private sector as well as working for the public sector, as well. there is a huge, huge amount to asking. it is all happening in the wake of this blog post at the end of last week by the prime minister's

former senior adviser at dominic cummings, who basically it seems has gone to work with the prime minister and is prepared to publish all sorts of e—mails and notes of conversations he had when he worked in downing street, so they could be loads more stuff or a low small things to come out as a result. plenty to keep an eye on stop on those questions, some are to address. the defence secretary ben wallace will be here live just after 7:30am this morning. around half—a—million tilt—year—olds in england will be invited to book their first dose of a coronavirus vaccine from today. lio—to—1t3—year—olds are expected to follow later this week. it comes as a new tv ad campaign is being launched to encourage all under—50s across the uk to say yes when they're offered a shot. hospitality venues in wales can start serving people outside from this morning. our wales correspondent tomos morgan is at a restaurant in cardiff for us. they must be looking forward to doing business again. good morning.

we are very much looking forward to having a pint at the is when we are finished. this rooftop garden is in the shadow of the millennium stadium in the city centre, room for 160 outside here. they are sold out all week, people looking forward to having a drink outside once again. it will not be until, looking like, the 17th, like in england, until enjoy venues will be able to open and there is a caveat of the vaccine numbers keep continuing at the same rate they have been doing and the covid levels remain low, as they have done for a number of months here in wales. as well as hospitals, outdoor fitness classes can restart an outdoor weddings can also take place. —— as well as outdoor hospitality. a week today, gyms will reopen into our facilities, hospitality. a week today, gyms will reopen into ourfacilities, as hospitality. a week today, gyms will reopen into our facilities, as well. tomos, thank you very much.

the former chief executive of the post office has said she's truly sorry forthe suffering caused to subpostmasters who were wrongly convicted of criminal offences. reverend paula vennells issued the apology as she announced she would be stepping back from her public roles, as well as her regular church duties, in the wake of the scandal. on friday, judges quashed the convictions of 39 former subpostmasters who — due to an it flaw — had wrongfully been found guilty of theft and fraud. it was a good night for brits at the oscars last night. sir anthony hopkins took home the award for best actor, while daniel kaluuya won best supporting actor, and emerald fennell scooped best screenplay for promising young woman. daniel kaluuya it gave a memorable acceptance speech! nomadland took home several awards, with chloe zhao becoming the first woman of colour to win best director. the pandemic meant it was

a pared down ceremony, as our entertainment correspondent colin paterson reports. the year the oscars were held in a train station, best picture went to a film about a van. nomadland! frances mcdormand plays a woman who has lost herjob and her husband, so takes to the road to find work and community. no, i'm not homeless. i'm just... ..houseless. she celebrated by encouraging people to go back to the cinema, and then paid tribute to the film's sound mixer, michael wolf snyder, who took his own life last month. we give this one to our wolf. she howls. she also won best actress for a third time. the film's director, chloe zhao, became only the second woman in the 93—year history of the oscars to win best director. at the age of 83, sir anthony hopkins became a triple oscar winner, and the oldest best actor ever, for playing a man with dementia in the father. i am not leaving my flat! butjust like at the baftas, he wasn't there. the academy congratulates

anthony hopkins and accepts the oscar on his behalf. he hadn't even gone to the bfi in london, where a number of british nominees had gathered. it was the final award of the night and meant the oscars had a very flat ending. earlier, britain's daniel kaluuya was named best supporting actor for playing the black panther fred hampson injudas and the black messiah... the black panthers are forming a rainbow coalition of oppressed brothers and sisters of every colour. ..and managed to thoroughly embarrass his sister. like, it's incredible. my mum, my dad, they had sex. it's amazing. like, do you know what i'm saying? i'm here! do you know what i mean? so, i'm so happy to be alive. there was a very different feel to this year's oscars. it was far less star—studded, there were very few laughs and very few film clips. the opening was designed to look like a movie, although had it not been live, regina king would have asked for take two. 0h! live tv, here we go. and on the night glenn close tied

with peter o'toole for having the most acting nominations without ever winning — eight — she showed she wasn't too downhearted by taking part in a film quiz and doing a dance. there were british wins in seven categories. emerald furnell was nurse patsy in call the midwife and camilla in the crown. now she's an oscar winner — best original screenplay for her film female revenge film, promising young woman. i'm trying very hard not to cry, which is very difficult as an english person, because we don't cry, ever. goodnight. all in all, a very strange and rather muted oscars. hollywood will be hoping they can leave the train station, and normal service is resumed next year. colin paterson, bbc news. let's speak to our west coast correspondent, sophie long. it really was a very different night to what we're used to seeing, wasn't it? it to what we're used to seeing, wasn't it? ., , ., ., , to what we're used to seeing, wasn't it? .,, ., ., , ., to what we're used to seeing, wasn't

missing in this year and go back into cinemas, many of which have been closed for most of the year. any surprises? i been closed for most of the year. any surprises?— been closed for most of the year. any surprises? i think the biggest surrise of any surprises? i think the biggest surprise of the _ any surprises? i think the biggest surprise of the night _ any surprises? i think the biggest surprise of the night was - any surprises? i think the biggest surprise of the night was so - any surprises? i think the biggest i surprise of the night was so anthony hopkins went for it that father, very welcome for british people but it had been widely predicted to go posthumously to chadwick boseman for his role in ma rainey�*s black bottom. daily davis had also been predicted to win best actress for her role, but that 20 frances mcdormand. not a night a few surprises but it was a night of women making history. we saw a lot of that. , ., ., ,, , ., , of that. sophie long, thank you very much. that is talking about the silver screen. on the tv screen, where have you watching line of duty? ihla you watching line of duty? no comment- _ you watching line of duty? no comment. that _ you watching line of duty? no comment. that will— you watching line of duty? no comment. that will be - you watching line of duty? no comment. that will be right i you watching line of duty? no comment. that will be right in | you watching line of duty? no - comment. that will be right in your e e line if comment. that will be right in your eye line if you _ comment. that will be right in your eye line if you are _ comment. that will be right in your eye line if you are watching - comment. that will be right in your eye line if you are watching right i eye line if you are watching right but last night. when episode left and we will be talking to kelly

english channel and around channel islands. temperature is lower in scotland than yesterday, yesterday in the north—west it was 18 degrees. today we are looking at 11. top ten which is likely to be in cardiff, about 16 degrees this afternoon. the latter part of the afternoon, early evening, we still have all this rain across scotland, some could prove to be heavy and thundery as denoted by the light green. some will get into northern england and northern ireland but here it will be more patchy in nature. for the rest of us, it will remain largely dry. through the course of the evening and overnight that band of rain will continue to sink southwards and eventually getting into much of england and wales, away from the south where it will be cold enough for a touch of frost.— south where it will be cold enough for a touch of frost. thank you very much. as we've been hearing, labour are demanding answers on how the refurbishments to the prime minister's downing street flat were paid for. we're joined now by the shadow education secretary, kate green.

with fort william visible in the distance. the gondola up the mountainside has stood idle all winter. the ski season has now passed but this outdoor centre is ready to reopen. we're really looking forward to welcoming everybody back. we've done lots of preparation to make the place as covid—safe as we possibly can — sanitiser points everywhere, temperature checks in the gondola hall — but we've got big open spaces for everybody to come and enjoy so we just want everybody to come, use the gondola, come for a ride on your bike, get on the mountain and enjoy yourself. fort william attracts visitors from around the world. many businesses rely on tourism and there's a real sense of determination and optimism for the season ahead. for the first time in months, it's now possible to book an overnight stay, though staying with family and friends is not yet an option. i think it's going to be very busy this season. i think everybody needs to go somewhere and they would

like to go somewhere. foreign travel has been more difficult at present so i'm hoping they're all going to come here. it's a marvellous place. as hospitality starts to reopen, some are concerned there will be challenges — the absence of international travellers, social distancing, and other safety regulations that must be followed. we're looking at may being a pretty slow month because we've got to close the doors at eight o'clock at night and we won't be selling any alcohol in the evenings, so, you know, our takings are going to be very much down in may and it will be very hard to make ends meet. you know, we've accepted that this is not going to be a year when we make money. many town centres have been eerily quiet, but from today we can collect takeaways from inside a shop, and nonessential retail can reopen. the manager in this fort william book shop has been counting down the days.

of the work it's already doing. last year saw violent crime in london drop by 26%. schools are being given access to free teaching materials to help challenge conspiracy theories around covid and vaccines. the work's been developed by the stephen hawking foundation, with help from scientists, and pupils and teachers in east london. my father used to say there was no such thing as a stupid question, and we framed — the whole presentation is about asking questions. and we want students to feel that they can bring forward what their concerns are, what they may have heard, that they can discuss it with someone they trust — their teacher — who will also, at the same time in this presentation, have access to all the information they need, to help students come to their own conclusions based on factual, up—to—date scientific information. it's big congratulations to daniel kaluuya. the londoner, who grew up in camden town, has won best supporting actor at the oscars, for his performance as black panthers leader fred hampton injudas and the black messiah.

let's take a look at the travel situation now. there's a good service on the tubes this morning. on the buses, the strike planned today affecting london united services has been called off. on the m25, traffic is being held anticlockwise at dartford tunnel — that's due to a broken down vehicle. finally, the woolwich ferry only has one boat running due to technical issue. now the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. the temperature overnight widely stayed above zero, so we should be frost free this morning. we have got a little bit of cloud, but that will burn back and we will see another dry day with some sunshine. that east, north easterly breeze persists, however, so it's going to feel a bit chillier in the east. further west, temperatures of 13 or iii celsius. overnight tonight, after some evening sunshine, it's dry and it's clear. as a result, the temperature is going to drop right down to zero, perhaps out in the suburbs,

so we mightjust see the return of a little bit of frost first thing on tuesday morning. on tuesday, there is a front moving south. but it's a little bit further west, so it looks like we are going to escape any rain. it is going to be another dry day with some sunshine. it's not until overnight on wednesday where we start to see the effects of that front towards the south, and we are likely to see a little bit of rain overnight and into thursday morning. it will clear. chillier for thursday. the temperature recovering just a little into the weekend. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london in an hour. now though, it's back to dan and louise. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin. the uk hasjoined the global aid effort to help with the growing coronavirus crisis in india, as a devastating new surge of infections grips the country. more than 600 pieces of medical equipment, including ventilators and oxygen concentrators, will be dispatched this week,

with the first shipment due to arrive tomorrow. let's get more now from defence secretary, ben wallace, who joins us from portsmouth. good morning to you. thank you very much forjoining us. lots of things to talk to you about. how concerned are you by the scenes that we are seeing from india?— are you by the scenes that we are seeing from india? well, i think we should all be _ seeing from india? well, i think we should all be concerned. _ seeing from india? well, i think we should all be concerned. i - seeing from india? well, i think we should all be concerned. i think- should all be concerned. i think it's one of the fears that all governments have managing an outbreak like this, what happens when it hits the health system? and what happens if the health system becomes overwhelmed? that is why britain alongside the united states and other countries have been pretty quick and determined to offer our help to india, and that is what we will do. we are going to get out there, help them with those challenges around ventilators and oxygen, which is where their trouble is at the moment. it is really important that we all come together and friends —— what might help our friends and allies. haifa and friends -- what might help our friends and allies.— friends and allies. how concerned are ou

friends and allies. how concerned are you by — friends and allies. how concerned are you by the — friends and allies. how concerned are you by the wider _ friends and allies. how concerned are you by the wider spread - friends and allies. how concerned are you by the wider spread of i friends and allies. how concerned l are you by the wider spread of that indian variant? i are you by the wider spread of that indian variant?— indian variant? i think at the moment we _ indian variant? i think at the moment we are _ indian variant? i think at the moment we are collecting i indian variant? i think at the l moment we are collecting the indian variant? i think at the - moment we are collecting the data. i think what i would say is we are watching with concern. but we are not yet in a place where we have made a view of exactly how damaging or not, as the case may be, to our own outbreak year. the key here is it reminds all of us watching this why it is important to have a slow and steady road map out of the pandemic. and why we should take each step as they come, not rush forward or a comeback. that is what we are doing now. that's why all of us today in the united kingdom recognise that there some really good news out there, which is a 60 per 2% of all adults are now vaccinated in the united kingdom. —— 62%. people of 244 years of age will now be offered the vaccine. that is good news but it does not mean to say we throw it all in and rush headlong for the door. i think that is why we have got to remember that at the heart of managing these

pandemics is managing the flow into the hospital system, so that hospitals can cope. that is why it is going forward steadily, getting the injection is done, butjust remembering what is going on in the rest of the world. you don't have to go very far, even very far into europe, to see what happens when things can get out of kilter. that is why we will help india. but we will also continue to roll out as a government come along side of the amazing volunteers, the vaccine programme. we amazing volunteers, the vaccine programme-— amazing volunteers, the vaccine rouramme. ~ ~ ., ., ., ., programme. we know india is a ma'or roducer of programme. we know india is a ma'or producer of vaccines d programme. we know india is a ma'or producer of vaccines for d programme. we know india is a ma'or producer of vaccines for the i programme. we know india is a ma'or producer of vaccines for the globe. i producer of vaccines for the globe. do you think the uk should perhaps forego the vaccines is promised that have been made in india? i forego the vaccines is promised that have been made in india?— have been made in india? i think what is happening _ have been made in india? i think what is happening overall- have been made in india? i think what is happening overall is, - have been made in india? i think| what is happening overall is, one have been made in india? i think. what is happening overall is, one of the strengths of the united kingdom's response and the government response to vaccines, is the show is a diverse supply chain. we haven'tjust narrowed ourselves to astrazeneca. we have got astrazeneca, pfizerand to astrazeneca. we have got astrazeneca, pfizer and several others, made all over the world and

made in the united kingdom as well. that gives us options. we will stand by to do what we can for our friends around the world and at the same time continue to roll out to the united kingdom.— time continue to roll out to the united kingdom. sorry to interrupt. miuht united kingdom. sorry to interrupt. mi . ht that united kingdom. sorry to interrupt. might that include _ united kingdom. sorry to interrupt. might that include forgoing - united kingdom. sorry to interrupt. might that include forgoing those i might that include forgoing those promised vaccines? i might that include forgoing those promised vaccines?— promised vaccines? i think at the moment india _ promised vaccines? i think at the moment india is _ promised vaccines? i think at the moment india is already, - promised vaccines? i think at the moment india is already, the - promised vaccines? i think at the i moment india is already, the indian government has put a bar on a number of exploits of vaccines. i can't tell you of that definitely includes united kingdom exports, but it does include a number of exports around the world. i think india are trying to deal with their problem. they can manufacture it, they have the means to do that. they are more fortunate than many other countries. what we have to make sure is that it it's notjust have to make sure is that it it's not just about vaccines, but really the here and now and all these awful reports we are seeing in the media on india, is about the hospital system. we have to get in there, other than what we can, ventilators and oxygen, to make sure the hospitals don't fall over.- and oxygen, to make sure the hospitals don't fall over. over the weekend there _ hospitals don't fall over. over the weekend there have _ hospitals don't fall over. over the weekend there have been - hospitals don't fall over. over the l weekend there have been repeated

claims about the refurbishment of the prime minister parts flat. a few questions to be clear. where did the money come from to pay the bill? the prime money come from to pay the bill? the: prime minister money come from to pay the bill? i“i;e: prime minister has money come from to pay the bill? i“i9: prime minister has paid money come from to pay the bill? ““ii9: prime minister has paid the money come from to pay the bill? i““i9 prime minister has paid the bill. he has personally paid the bill, on top of the 30,000 allowance which comes from the taxpayers, which most prime ministers have taken advantage of the past. he has paid the money. you sa he has the past. he has paid the money. you say he has paid the money. was it originally a loan?— originally a loan? well, i don't... the prime _ originally a loan? well, i don't... the prime minister _ originally a loan? well, i don't... the prime minister paid - originally a loan? well, i don't... the prime minister paid the - originally a loan? well, i don't... i the prime minister paid the money from his own money. so that's how it has been paid. a lot of speculation around this. the simple fact is the prime minister has paid out of his own money. he has appointed a lawyer to look at the process. office of the electoral commission, it is reported the media are engaging with the tory party. these answers will come out in the future. plus all the

cabinet officers annual reports will show details of different expenditure and only recently the prime minister answered a parliamentary question. so prime minister answered a parliamentary question. so 'ust to be clear, parliamentary question. so 'ust to be cearll you i parliamentary question. so 'ust to be clear, you don't * parliamentary question. so 'ust to be clear, you don't knowh parliamentary question. so 'ust to be clear, you don't know it h parliamentary question. so just to be clear, you don't know it wasn't| be clear, you don't know it wasn't originally a loan from a conservative party donor? ida. originally a loan from a conservative party donor? originally a loan from a conservative pa donor? :, :, conservative party donor? no, what i am sa ina, conservative party donor? no, what i am saying. what _ conservative party donor? no, what i am saying. what i _ conservative party donor? no, what i am saying, what i do _ conservative party donor? no, what i am saying, what i do not _ conservative party donor? no, what i am saying, what i do not as - conservative party donor? no, what i am saying, what i do not as the - am saying, what i do not as the prime minister is paid for it from his own money. that's it. all the rest is speculation. to be brutally honest, who pays for the prime minister's flat or it is the prime minister. i am the defence secretary. i am here focusing on aircraft carriers. you can ask me all day about, do i know how the flat was paid for? the prime minister has been clear he paid for the flat and that is it. i minister has been clear he paid for the flat and that is it.— the flat and that is it. i have to ask ou the flat and that is it. i have to ask you again- _ the flat and that is it. i have to ask you again. if _ the flat and that is it. i have to ask you again. if it _ the flat and that is it. i have to ask you again. if it was - the flat and that is it. i have to ask you again. if it was a - the flat and that is it. i have to ask you again. if it was a loan, j the flat and that is it. i have to i ask you again. if it was a loan, if it was a donation, in the first instance it should have been declared?— instance it should have been declared? 9 . ., , declared? well, at all times the prime minister _ declared? well, at all times the prime minister is _ declared? well, at all times the prime minister is complied - declared? well, at all times the prime minister is complied with | declared? well, at all times the i prime minister is complied with the

just... i have known the prime minister for many years. that is not the prime minister i know. that is just nonsense. he has denied it, number 10 has denied it. we are in a place now where we are seriously getting mainstream media making reports about he said, she said, they said, who said, unnamed sources going around in circles from advisers on advisers on advisers. frankly, what i know is that if the prime minister is utterly focused on this pandemic. just like we are seeing now in india. the stakes are incredibly high. he has managed to leave this government through a very, very difficult time. a global pandemic. he has at 62% of adults vaccinated, over half the population, way ahead of most of our contemporaries. he continues to deliver on that. and frankly, you know, i know it is oscar season, but the sort of gossip columns are now getting filled with such ludicrous allegations that it is just going beyond the reality. the prime minister, i have known him

personally for many years, and the idea that he is going to go around saying things like that is just wrong. and i think we should focus on the facts, if you could name who said that, that would be great. maybe we could have a discussion, who actually said that is what he said. that is where we are at now, louise. unnamed people talking about unnamed conversations with different people. that isn't really solid journalism. if you want to tell me who said, can discuss it. flan journalism. if you want to tell me who said, can discuss it.- journalism. if you want to tell me who said, can discuss it. can i ask ou who said, can discuss it. can i ask you then. — who said, can discuss it. can i ask you then. the _ who said, can discuss it. can i ask you then, the labour _ who said, can discuss it. can i ask you then, the labour party - who said, can discuss it. can i ask you then, the labour party are . you then, the labour party are saying that the government should make a statement, that you should publish all contacts between ministers and businesses. that would be showing what you know, wouldn't it? 50 be showing what you know, wouldn't it? ., ., , , it? so the... parliament is sitting toda . it? so the... parliament is sitting today- the _ it? so the... parliament is sitting today. the labour _ it? so the... parliament is sitting today. the labour party - it? so the... parliament is sitting today. the labour party can - it? so the... parliament is sitting today. the labour party can use i it? so the... parliament is sitting i today. the labour party can use the method of an urgent question. no doubt they will. they can summon to the house a secretary of state or a minister to answer their questions. that is privately appropriate. i did

it in opposition. i now get summoned to the house. they have all the —— those tools at his disposal. instead of talking about it labour should get on and do with and see where we are. do i think business, do i think unions, do i think people should be able to access their politicians and their ministers? absolutely, they do. because that is the government we are in. we are in, to represent people. and it's really important we hear the voices rather than the ones just channelled through a few select people. so it's absolutely right. in a global pandemic where we are really trying to get on top of things. we have to move quickly. as defence secretary, no we put lots of people in other departments to move at pace. one of the things our department does do is move quickly. no minister should turn down contacts from business, trade unions

and people offering help. and actually, too many people contacting us, the right thing to do at the right time. i'm in favour of transparency. i was the first mp to publish my expenses all those years ago. we publish my expenses all those years aio, . . ., , publish my expenses all those years an, . . ., , publish my expenses all those years ago. we can see the backdrop behind ou. tell ago. we can see the backdrop behind yom tell us — ago. we can see the backdrop behind yom tell us a — ago. we can see the backdrop behind you. tell us a little _ ago. we can see the backdrop behind you. tell us a little bit _ ago. we can see the backdrop behind you. tell us a little bit about - ago. we can see the backdrop behind you. tell us a little bit about why - you. tell us a little bit about why this void is significant. first you. tell us a little bit about why this void is significant.— this void is significant. first of all, the aircraft _ this void is significant. first of all, the aircraft carriers - this void is significant. first of all, the aircraft carriers kindly| all, the aircraft carriers kindly was made in six united kingdom yards around the country. 65,000 tonnes, 10,000 people help make it. nato's first fifth—generation aircraft carrier. it is the best of british. british made. it is a great convener. we will have united states forces on this, dutch forces. what we are going to do is go back to delivering that capability we have for a nato. it also projecting britain's soft power and hard power. not only is the ship about delivering solidarity with people

who stand for the same values, the rule of law and democracy, and upholding the un international law micro of the sea, it is also a floating trade centre. this will come alongside and countries along side of the world and show what british engineering can do. and we want to show what we can do if we work together. that is the key. in this anxious and insecure world, the thing that is really important that our adversaries don't have, as we have allies, we have friends, whether that is japan, india, the united states and europe, we stand for the same values. it is really important that this particular moment in time we stand in solidarity and come together around the world to stand up for those rights when they are under threat. defence secretary, ben wallace, thank you for time. at a quarter to eight, sally is with us this morning talking about what could be an amazing season for manchester city. they have got their first silverware? yes, and they could be more to come.

they played in the league cup final yesterday. i have to say, there was an atmosphere. can you believe it? fans inside, genuinely they could feel the atmosphere. manchester city have won the efl cup for a remarkable fourth year in a row after beating spurs 1—0 in the final. they did so in front of the biggest crowd at a football match since march last year. nearly 8,000 spectators were at wembley, including supporters of both city and spurs. the winner came from an unlikely source — defender aymerick laporte's late header was enough for city, who now could still win three trophies this season. it was not full but they represent all the people in the season. it sounds better with them there. they make noise. it is better, of course. the reason why we do that is for them. west brom's hopes of premier league survival are looking even slimmer. sam allardyce's side conceded an injury time equaliser against local rivals aston villa to draw 2—2. it leaves them nine points

from safety with five games to go. manchester united are ten points off the top, after their 0—0 with leeds at elland road. marcus rashford's free kick, the closest either side came to a winner. elsewhere, burnley thrashed wolves 4—0. stjohnstone stunned rangers in the scottish cup quarter—finals, coming from a goal behind in extra time to win on penalties. their goalkeeper zander clarke was the hero, helping stjohnstone score an equaliser to make it 1—1 in the last minute of extra time before saving two spot—kicks. kilmarnock play st mirren in the last quarter—final tonight. now to a name you can expect to here plenty more over the next few years — jessica gadirova. the 16—year—old from aylesbury has completed an unbelievable week at the european gymnastics championships in switzerland, with gold in the floor event. this goes with the silver and bronze she won in the days before.

gretna green is associated with this area of low pressure and its various fronts. bringing rain across the north and west of scotland. high pressure clinging onto the rest of the uk. a fair bit of cloud in eastern england, the midlands. that will be eroded by the sunshine. a lot of sunshine on offer. the rain slips further south across scotland. some of it, particularly in the north—east could prove to be heavy and thundery. an increasing amount of cloud coming across northern ireland and northern england will turn the sunshine hazy. these circles represent the average length of winds. not particularly windy. it will be gusty through the english channel and around the channel islands. as much as a0 mph. temperatures today getting up to ia and i6 temperatures today getting up to ia and 16 across parts of england and wales. cooler along the north sea coastline with a north shore breeze. and colder than it was yesterday across the north—west of scotland, where we are looking at high two of 11 degrees in stornoway. as we go

through this evening and overnight this area of low pressure with the fronts wrapped around it continues to sink southwards. it takes its cloud and showery rain with it. doesn't get into the far south of england or the south—east. here, under clear skies, another cold night with some frost. we are not expected frost anywhere else. temperatures between five and 8 degrees. through tomorrow here is our low pressure, with the weather front wrapped around it. again, continuing to sink slowly so. as it does so, you can see her lighter colours follow behind, indicating it is turning cooler. the yellow indicating temperatures holding up. we will have some sunshine across the far south—east and parts of southern in them. also some sunshine in north—west scotland. we have got a good packet of showers rotating around that area of low pressure. some of them will be heavy and thundery. in between them they will still be some dry, bright and sunny

skies at times. temperatures between eight in the north and 15 or 16 in the south. by the time we get to wednesday, our low pressure will still be with us but it is starting to move away. most of the rain from the weather front around it will be across wales and south—west england. again, some of this could be heavy and thundery. because we are in a cooler air mass we could also see on the tops of the pennines only, some wintriness and the same too in the highlands. we are talking the tops of the mountains, with temperatures six in lerwick and ia in london. then it continues chilly by day and chilly by night. carol, i know you are up to date with line of duty. prepare yourself for what we are about to say. well, it was another nerve shredding night for line of duty fans. we'll be speaking to dcijo davidson, aka kelly macdonald, at half eight.

seriously and injury prevention strategies were implemented based on the latest research. concerns about heading in football have also been voiced. the former england player alan shearer has signed up for the new study. he said were directed to understanding the earliest stage of dementia was incredibly important. hugh pym, bbc news. fascinating. well, another of the former players who is going to take part in the study is wales' record try scorer shane williams. hejoins us now. shame, really good to talk to you on this issue, which i know is of real concern to you and many other professional sportsmen and women. there has been a lot of media coverage around this. when did it come onto your radar and when did you start being concerned about potentially what might be going on? about a year ago i got invited to do a documentary on depression. 0bviously— a documentary on depression. obviously when i played there was very little — obviously when i played there was very little known about concussion.

by his former advisor, dominic cummings. let's speak to our chief political correspondent, adam fleming, now. who is at number 10... you are not that number 10. you are in westminster. how is number 10 responding to all these different claims? i responding to all these different claims? ., ., , ., claims? i am at number four millbank. — claims? i am at number four millbank, just _ claims? i am at number four millbank, just down - claims? i am at number four millbank, just down the - claims? i am at number fouri millbank, just down the road claims? i am at number four- millbank, just down the road and the prime minister's flat is above number 11, to prime minister's flat is above number11,to make prime minister's flat is above number 11, to make it even more complicated. the prime minister say he paid for the renovations himself but he took an advantage of an allowance of £30,000 all prime ministers get to do the place up. they hope that draws a line under this but it hasn't because quick questions are still being raised about, did the prime minister get a loan from somebody that he then used to pay for the renovations itself? was that loan potentially from somebody who was already donating money to the conservative party?

a meeting about the lockdown in the autumn, the prime minister is alleged to have said something along the lines of he would rather see the bodies piled high than shut the economy down again, which is absolutely denied by downing street this morning, they say that is not true and it is very much what ben wallace was saying earlier. i know it is oscar season _ wallace was saying earlier. i know it is oscar season but _ wallace was saying earlier. i know it is oscar season but the - wallace was saying earlier. i know it is oscar season but the gossip i it is oscar season but the gossip columns — it is oscar season but the gossip columns are now getting filled with such ludicrous allegations that it isjust— such ludicrous allegations that it isjust going beyond reality. the prime _ isjust going beyond reality. the prime minister, i have known him personally— prime minister, i have known him personally for many years, and the idea he _ personally for many years, and the idea he will— personally for many years, and the idea he will go around saying things like that— idea he will go around saying things like that is— idea he will go around saying things like that isjust idea he will go around saying things like that is just wrong. idea he will go around saying things like that isjust wrong. the idea he will go around saying things like that is just wrong.— like that is 'ust wrong. the reason there is so — like that isjust wrong. the reason there is so much _ like that isjust wrong. the reason there is so much static— like that isjust wrong. the reason there is so much static in - like that isjust wrong. the reason there is so much static in the - there is so much static in the political air at the moment is because borisjohnson and his former chief adviser, dominic cummings, basically seem to have gone to work with each other with the prime minister seemingly accusing dominic cummings of leaking the prime minister's private correspondence and dominic cummings writing a on friday afternoon may also its a very

serious claims against the prime minister and dominic cummings had lots of e—mails and notes and maybe audio recordings of his time in downing street when big decisions were being made and he is prepared to use that. things will move on a bit once afternoon because of the cheap civil servant, simon case, is giving evidence to a parliamentary committee about all the political stories you and i have talked about this year. stories you and i have talked about this ear. ., ~ stories you and i have talked about this ear. ., ,, , ., , . stories you and i have talked about this ear. ., ~ , . ., this year. thank you very much for the round-up- _ india has recorded another global record of new coronavirus cases for the fifth day running, with more than 352,000 infections reported in the last 2a hours. hospitals in delhi have completely run out of beds and some are missing critical supplies including oxygen. the uk — along with others — is now sending medical aid to the country. our india correspondent yogita limaye reports. the capital is being ravaged at a frightening speed.

with every pyre that burns, india's self belief is dying. each funeral is a story of personal loss and national shame. charanjeev malhotra has been helping to cremate the dead for decades. now, he barely ever stops working. "i've never seen such a terrifying situation. i can't believe that we're in the capital of india. people aren't getting oxygen, and they're dying like animals," he says. "we don't even have enough resources to cremate them properly." outside, shivangi mehra's on the phone, organising oxygen for the hospital she works in. nothing, nothing is being done. i don't know if government is sleeping, or what they are doing. i am totally disheartened with the situation that i am seeing. the government is a literal failure. a person cannot live here in delhi. a person cannot even die

peacefully in delhi. she is waiting to cremate her grandfather, who died, she says, because there wasn't enough oxygen. this small hospital in north delhi is facing a daily struggle. and we have been spending sleepless nights since the last one week. at times we feel like crying, because we are not able to help patients properly. every day, it is the same scenario. we are left only with two hours of oxygen. and we are only getting assurance from the system, no oxygen. and so, families are being told to organise oxygen. at one medical shop, we found people with empty cylinders, waiting to buy their own supply for loved ones who urgently need it. for many here, the government's promises of rushing in oxygen are coming too late. families are left asking why something so basic is unavailable. every crematorium we've

been to, we've seen body after body being brought in. it's hard for anyone to keep count, but what workers have been telling me is that the real scale of deaths caused by covid—19 in india is a lot higher than what official numbers reflect. and a lot of those who've died right now have done so because they couldn't get oxygen in time. this man runs a group of volunteers here. "even young people are dying. it is a very bad situation. if it keeps getting worse, we will have to burn bodies by the side of the road," he says. there is a sense of abandonment in this country. citizens are stepping up to do what a government should. left to fight a vicious pandemic on their own. yogita limaye, bbc news, delhi. around half—a—million aa—year—olds in england will be invited to book their first dose

of a coronavirus vaccine from today. a0—to—a3—year—olds are expected to follow later this week. it comes as a new tv ad campaign is being launched to encourage all under—50s across the uk to say yes when they're offered a shot. the former chief executive of the post office has said she's "truly sorry" for the "suffering" caused to subpostmasters who were wrongly convicted of criminal offences. reverend paula vennells issued the apology as she announced she would be stepping back from her public roles, as well as her regular church duties, in the wake of the scandal. on friday, judges quashed the convictions of 39 former subpostmasters who — due to an it flaw — had wrongfully been found guilty of theft and fraud. it was a good night for brits at the oscars last night. sir anthony hopkins took home the award for best actor, while daniel kaluuya won best supporting actor, and emerald fennell scooped best screenplay for promising young woman.

nomadland took home several awards, with chloe zhao becoming the first woman of colour to win best director. the pandemic meant it was a pared down ceremony, as our entertainment correspondent colin paterson reports. the year the oscars were held in a train station, best picture went to a film about a van. nomadland! frances mcdormand plays a woman who has lost herjob and her husband, so takes to the road to find work and community. no, i'm not homeless. i'm just... ..houseless. she celebrated by encouraging people to go back to the cinema, and then paid tribute to the film's sound mixer, michael wolf snyder, who took his own life last month. we give this one to our wolf. she howls. she also won best actress for a third time. the film's director, chloe zhao, became only the second woman in the 93—year history of the oscars to win best director. at the age of 83, sir anthony hopkins became

a triple oscar winner, and the oldest ever winner a double oscar winner, and the oldest ever winner of an acting oscar, for playing a man with dementia in the father. i am not leaving my flat! butjust like at the baftas, he wasn't there. the academy congratulates anthony hopkins and accepts the oscar on his behalf. he hadn't even gone to the bfi in london, where a number of british nominees had gathered. it was the final award of the night, and meant the oscars had a very flat ending. earlier, britain's daniel kaluuya was named best supporting actor for playing the black panther fred hampton injudas and the black messiah... the black panthers are forming a rainbow coalition of oppressed brothers and sisters of every colour. ..and managed to thoroughly embarrass his sister. like, it's incredible. my mum, my dad, they had sex. it's amazing. like, do you know what i'm saying? i'm here! do you know what i mean? so, i'm so happy to be alive. there was a very different feel to this year's oscars. it was far less star—studded, there were very few laughs and very few film clips.

the opening was designed to look like a movie, although had it not been live, regina king would have asked for take two. ooh! live tv, here we go. and on the night glenn close tied with peter o'toole for having the most acting nominations without ever winning — eight — she showed she wasn't too downhearted by taking part in a film quiz and doing a dance. there were british wins in eight categories. emerald furnell was nurse patsy in call the midwife and camilla in the crown. now she's an oscar winner — best original screenplay for her film female revenge film, promising young woman. i'm trying very hard not to cry, which is very difficult as an english person, because we don't cry, ever. goodnight. all in all, it was a very strange and rather muted oscars. hollywood will be hoping they can leave the train station, and normal service is resumed next year. colin paterson, bbc news.

we will have an impact on these companies and they will come out with some real ideas. like there is a lot of talk about it. here we are having a discussion about it this morning on a breakfast tv. it is for a day is enough to make— a day is enough to make these companies _ a day is enough to make these companies sit _ a day is enough to make these companies sit up _ a day is enough to make these companies sit up and - a day is enough to make these companies sit up and take - a day is enough to make these i companies sit up and take notice, a day is enough to make these companies sit up and take notice, da —— is a four days enough? mat companies sit up and take notice, da -- is a four days enough? not enough but it is a start. _ -- is a four days enough? not enough but it is a start. not _ -- is a four days enough? not enough but it is a start. not doing _ but it is a start. not doing anything also is not going to change anything also is not going to change anything but it is to mark a moment of enough is enough because where are we going with what is happening at the minute? yes, it is not enough but it is good, it is very good that everyone has decided to do it and to make sure we can have an impact on the companies, like i said before. as you saw, and i know it is not the subject, but what happens with the european super league, when everyone comes together to try to force something unfortunately because that is what you need to do sometimes get your game back with what we saw last

week, and maybe to make the big guns come out and do some... mix improper change on the platform because you cannot be out there and say whatever you want and hide behind fake accounts and you don't know who is behind there. it is too easy for my liking. behind there. it is too easy for my likinu. . . w' behind there. it is too easy for my likin.. . . ,~ . behind there. it is too easy for my likin.. . . . , . liking. can i ask, what is it that actually prompted _ liking. can i ask, what is it that actually prompted you - liking. can i ask, what is it that actually prompted you to - liking. can i ask, what is it that actually prompted you to make liking. can i ask, what is it that - actually prompted you to make the decision to come off social media yourself and delete your accounts? was it a specific piece of abuse he received, did it get to the point where you wouldn't read anything because you knew you would get racial abuse or was it one particular message that made you think, that's it? it particular message that made you think, that's it?— think, that's it? it wasn't about me, it think, that's it? it wasn't about me. it was _ think, that's it? it wasn't about me, it was about _ think, that's it? it wasn't about me, it was about what - think, that's it? it wasn't about me, it was about what was - think, that's it? it wasn't about - me, it was about what was happening in the game and what those young players were getting. i said to myself, look, i have seen a lot coming up on social media. some x footballers came off it, footballers came off it but this didn't go

anywhere and i note that if i came off it it would generate something, it would create a wave, and it did. but those people inspired me before to do so and sometimes we have a voice. i am to do so and sometimes we have a voice. iam not to do so and sometimes we have a voice. i am not playing any more but i know that i can help and it did help in a way. so this is why i did it, because i did it —— did not myself get personally abused, at the time i did it, but i'd knew what was happening in my game and for those young players and whatever is happening in society, i think for me personally it is not linear. i am sure you guys have kids, i don't want my kids to go through this. it is not good. want my kids to go through this. it is not good-— is not good. that is the thing, thier , is not good. that is the thing, thierry. we — is not good. that is the thing, thierry. we do _ is not good. that is the thing, thierry, we do have _ is not good. that is the thing, thierry, we do have children | is not good. that is the thing, i thierry, we do have children and is not good. that is the thing, - thierry, we do have children and you try to teach them to act on the right way, to respect others. from your perspective, why do you think we are in this situation now where there are clearly a number of

the whole of english football and i hope the players will follow, going against those companies. enough is enough. we are talking about football, we can talk about a different topic, people have mental health issues, commit suicide because of it. can we not see who is behind the accounts? at the end of the day they feel more brave, if you can call that brave, to be able to do that because you don't know who it is a. ~ ., do that because you don't know who itisa. ~ ., do that because you don't know who itisa. ., .,, do that because you don't know who itisa. ., ., , ., it is a. would you encourage fans to do the same — it is a. would you encourage fans to do the same this _ it is a. would you encourage fans to do the same this weekend? - it is a. would you encourage fans to do the same this weekend? you - it is a. would you encourage fans to | do the same this weekend? you talk about the strength of the pack, would that be your message to people watching, fans of yourself, of football, to also take a break from social media this weekend? j football, to also take a break from social media this weekend? h can social media this weekend? i can re eat social media this weekend? i can repeat myself. — social media this weekend? i can repeat myself, it _ social media this weekend? i can repeat myself, it is _ social media this weekend? i can repeat myself, it is important - social media this weekend? ica�*u repeat myself, it is important like with the super league, when everything comes together, everybody comes together you can make a change. we started with a lot of people, now it is the entirety of

english football. so the fans, players, if you have had enough of it, thenjoin, obviously, because people are going to have to answer and answer properly, not make some really light changes. j and answer properly, not make some really light changes.— really light changes. i remember when louise. — really light changes. i remember when louise, beside _ really light changes. i remember when louise, beside me, - really light changes. i remember when louise, beside me, when l really light changes. i remember. when louise, beside me, when she came up social media for a while last year she found herself having a lot more time in her life have you found the positives of not having a social media account? j am found the positives of not having a social media account?— social media account? i am on hohda social media account? i am on holiday right _ social media account? i am on holiday right now! _ social media account? i am on holiday right now! it _ social media account? i am on holiday right now! it is - social media account? i am on holiday right now! it is great! l holiday right now! it is great! seriously, listen, let's be honest. it is a great tool, it is a great tool. but people are using it as a weapon and so everybody wants to be safe on it. it is a great tool but also, as you said, i am not on it for a little while i am not sad about it. you can live a normal life with or without it but it is a great tool, don't get me wrong, but can

of the work it's already doing. last year saw violent crime in london drop by 26%. schools are being given access to free teaching materials to help challenge conspiracy theories around covid and vaccines. the work's been developed by the stephen hawking foundation with help from scientists, as well as pupils and teachers in east london. my father used to say there was no such thing as a stupid question, and we framed — the whole presentation is about asking questions. and we want students to feel that they can bring forward what their concerns are, what they may have heard, that they can discuss it with someone they trust — their teacher — who will also, at the same time in this presentation, have access to all the information they need, to help students come to their own conclusions based on factual, up—to—date scientific information. it's big congratulations to daniel kaluuya. the londoner who grew up in camden town has won best supporting actor at the oscars — for his performance injudas and the black messiah. let's take a look at

the travel situation now. tubes are running well but there are minor delays on the dlr services to and from bank. there's been an accident on the ali0 eastbound by the hoover building — there are queues back to hillingdon circus. finally, on the m25, there are delays both ways towards dartford crossings due to earlier broken down vehicles. now the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. the temperature overnight widely stayed above zero, so we should be frost free this morning. we have got a little bit of cloud, but that will burn back and we will see another dry day with some sunshine. that east, north easterly breeze persists, however, so it's going to feel a bit chillier in the east. further west, temperatures of 13 or iii celsius. overnight tonight, after some evening sunshine, it's dry and it's clear. as a result, the temperature is going to drop right down to zero,

perhaps out in the suburbs, so we mightjust see the return of a little bit of frost first thing on tuesday morning. on tuesday, there is a front moving south. but it's a little bit further west, so it looks like we are going to see any rain. it is going to be another dry day with some sunshine. it's not until overnight on wednesday where we start to see the effects of that front towards the south, and we are likely to see a little bit of rain overnight and into thursday morning. it will clear. chillier for thursday. the temperature recovering just a little into the weekend. i'm back with the latest from the bbc london in half an hour. now though it's back to dan and louise. bye for now. hello, this is breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin. morning live is coming up here on bbc one straight after us. an early warning, we have kelly macdonald from line of duty coming

another thing bang on trend at the moment is upcycling. former strictly star and new money for nothing presenter jj chalmers will be telling us the personal reason he's joining the show, and he'll also be revealing how you could be sitting on a small fortune. let's hope jj has kept his strictly fitness up, because janette will be kicking off the week with an energising work—out. all that and more at 9:15. good luck with the interview, everyone. thank you very much. pay close attention. we will be asking questions later. it's the show that's kept more than 13 million viewers — and at least half this sofa — gripped for the past five weeks. and last night, line of duty delivered yet another showstopper. and after lots of persuasion from you, i am up to date. ac—12 fans were treated to one of the programme's signature interrogation scenes lasting a whopping 29 minutes and 22 seconds.

it was so good, it went quickly. we'll be joined by one of this series' stars shortly. but first this is your opportunity to look away if you don't want any spoilers. here's a reminder of last night's drama. eight six, control, suspect vehicle failed to comply, . initiating a pursuit. tyres squeal. armed police! get out of the vehicle with your arms raised and your hands open, with palms facing towards me. he was my uncle, that's... that... that's not true! so, what is the truth?
